2013 Ford focus loses power while going uphill.
Sometimes when driving on Flat Road also and

Yes, it could be the air filter but check/replace the fuel filter too. They should be replaced before 50,000 miles. If that doesn't work, have it scanned for fault codes for free at an auto parts store. That will show if something more is going on. Good Luck.
